Also question is, what is the nuclide symbol for a nucleus that contains 38 protons and 50 neutrons?
| Name | Strontium |
|---|---|
| Atomic Mass | 87.62 atomic mass units |
| Number of Protons | 38 |
| Number of Neutrons | 50 |
| Number of Electrons | 38 |
Beside above, how do you find the nuclear symbol of an isotope? Standard nuclear notation shows the chemical symbol, the mass number and the atomic number of the isotope. Example: the isotopes of carbon. The element is determined by the atomic number 6. Carbon-12 is the common isotope, with carbon-13 as another stable isotope which makes up about 1%.
Consequently, how many protons neutrons and electrons are there in a neutral atom of the isotope with the nuclear symbol?
An atomic number of 11 means this atom will have 11 protons. A mass number of 23 means 23 - 11 this atom will have 12 neutrons. Since this atom is neutral the positive protons must be equal to the negative electrons. This atom will have 11 electrons.
What is the nuclide symbol?
Nuclides are specific types of atoms or nuclei. Every nuclide has a chemical element symbol (E) as well as an atomic number (Z) , the number of protons in the nucleus, and a mass number (A), the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The symbol for the element is as shown below: AZE.
